本文通过分析39位亚裔美国人的自传体作品，探讨了族裔认同发展的本质。集中在以往的研究表明，是一个四阶段的民族认同形成过程中，这最后两个阶段的调查-民族出现和民族认同纳入-揭示了一种模式的探索和决策，结果在更好地理解自我认同和更大的自我接受作为一个少数民族的成员。叙述者揭示的过程始于愿意面对以前未解决的种族身份问题，导致寻找一个新的和更令人满意的群体的成员。经过一段时间的探索，发现他们对美国主流文化或少数民族文化都不太适应，叙述者发现了美国少数民族群体-亚裔美国人。叙述者描述了他们通过这些阶段的运动，以实现积极和自我验证的亚裔美国人的身份。本文最后讨论了教育和咨询的研究结果的影响。
This paper examines the nature of ethnic identity development by analyzing published autobiographical accounts of 39 Asian Americans. Focusing on what previous research indicates is a four-stage ethnic identity formation process, this investigation of the last two stages--ethnic emergence and ethnic identity incorporation--revealed a pattern of exploration and decision-making that results in greater understanding of self-identity and greater self-acceptance as a member of an ethnic minority. The process revealed by the narrators began with a willingness to face previously unaddressed ethnic identity issues, leading to the search for membership in a new and more satisfying group. After a period of exploration, and finding that they were not fully comfortable with either the mainstream American or ethnic culture, the narrators discovered the ethnic minority American group--Asian Americans. The narrators described their movement through these stages to achieve an Asian American identity as positive and self-validating. The paper concludes with a discussion of the implications of the findings for education and counseling.
